# Privacy Policy

> How Aarvin Ventures handles personal data on this website and in project enquiries: no tracking cookies, minimal data, and your rights under the DPDP Act and GDPR.

Canonical page: https://www.aarvinventures.com/privacy-policy · Updated 2026-11-11

Effective 2026-11-08. This policy explains what personal data aarvinventures.com handles, why, and what you can ask us to do with it. It is governed by Indian law, including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and written to meet the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for visitors and clients in Europe.

## Who we are

Aarvin Ventures (“we”, “us”) is a digital studio at Villa 24, Plot No 24, Affluence Villas, Haris Pranava Township, Manneguda, Ranga Reddy, Telangana 501510, India (GSTIN 36BXTPR0969J1ZJ). We decide how personal data on this website is used, which makes us its data controller (a “Data Fiduciary” under Indian law).

## What this website collects

Browsing this website does not require an account and does not identify you. We only receive personal data that you choose to send us:

- Project brief form: your name, email address, and — if you add them — company, phone number, the services you are interested in, your timeline, your message and whether you would like our NDA first.
- Email and WhatsApp: whatever you write to us, along with your email address or phone number.
- Technical data: like every website, our hosting provider processes your IP address and browser details for a short time to deliver pages and protect the site against abuse.

## Cookies and analytics

This website sets no cookies and uses no advertising or cross-site trackers, so there is no cookie banner.

We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which works without cookies and without fingerprinting, and shows us only totals such as page views, referring sites and countries.

Fonts, images and scripts are served from our own domain; your browser does not contact Google Fonts or any other third-party content network when you visit.

## Why we use it, and on what basis

- To reply to your enquiry, prepare a proposal and, if you wish, sign an NDA — on the basis of your consent under the DPDP Act, and of steps you asked for before a contract under GDPR Article 6(1)(b).
- To keep the website secure and working — on the basis of our legitimate interest under GDPR Article 6(1)(f), and as a legitimate use under the DPDP Act.
- We never sell personal data, never use it for advertising and never add you to a mailing list without asking.

## Who receives it

Only the service providers we need to run this website and answer you, each bound by its own data-protection terms:

- Cloudflare, Inc. — hosting, network security, the project brief form and cookie-free analytics.
- Zoho Corporation — our business email, where your enquiry arrives.
- WhatsApp (Meta Platforms) — only if you choose to contact us on WhatsApp.

## International transfers

Our providers may process data outside India or your own country. Where data from the European Economic Area is transferred, we rely on the providers’ data-processing terms, including the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

## How long we keep it

You can ask us to delete your enquiry at any time, before these periods end.

- Enquiries that do not become a project: up to 24 months, then deleted.
- Enquiries that become a project: for the length of the engagement and as long afterwards as tax and contract law requires.
- Hosting and security logs: as briefly as our provider allows, typically a matter of days.

## Your rights

You can ask us to:

- tell you what personal data we hold about you and give you a copy;
- correct or complete it;
- erase it, or stop using it;
- withdraw consent you gave earlier — without affecting what was done before;
- nominate another person to exercise your rights if you cannot (DPDP Act).

## How to use your rights

Email sannagiri@aarvinventures.com from the address you used with us. We reply within 30 days. If you are in the European Economic Area, you may also complain to your local data-protection authority; in India, after contacting our Grievance Officer, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India.

## Security

The website is served only over HTTPS with strict security headers. Enquiries are read only by the people answering them.

## Children

This website is for business enquiries and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

## Client projects

When we handle personal data on a client’s behalf — for example while building their website or app — the client decides how it is used and we act as their processor. That work is covered by our contract with the client and, on request, a Data Processing Agreement; see Data processing.

## Our products

POSCountr, ClothBuddy and CommCorner have their own privacy policies on poscountr.com, clothbuddy.in and commcorner.com. This policy covers only aarvinventures.com.

## Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle personal data, we will update this page and the date at the top.
